Chris Samuels Heads Back To The Gridiron
Click to view slideshow.
When most student assistants join an NCAA football staff, there’s a worry about making a good impression and getting up to speed with the responsibilities of the job. There’s the apprehension of being respected by the players and being an asset, rather than a hindrance to the coaching staff.
But no student assistant has ever had quite the résumé...

Revolving Door on Redskins O-Line
It’s never easy to field a successful offense when an offensive line is constantly in flux – just ask the Redskins. They’ve endured several seasons worth of mediocre line play because the front office has yet to make a serious commitment to rebuilding a line that once featured standout tackles Chris Samuels and Jon Jansen.
Aside from drafting Trent Williams, little...

Hail To The Redskins Walk: Part 8
And finally, on the morning of the first game of 2011, we arrive at the final panel of the Redskins brand new Hail To The Redskins Walk wall.
It’s probably too soon to make fun of many of the cultural trends of the 2000s (because they’re still popular), but I’ll give it a shot anyway. This is the age of X-games, Pokemon, and text/tweet-speak, wen gramr srsly...

Chris Samuels In Japan, 2002

Where Does LaVar Arrington Rank Among Redskins Draft Picks Of The 2000s?
Intern Ross Leonhart wrote a piece for Redskins.com on the top five Redskins draft picks of the 2000s. One of the folks on that list was former Redskins linebacker and current 106.7 The Fan host LaVar Arrington. Arrington took some exception to his placement on the list, and did so for well over thirty minutes of airtime yesterday. (See segments 14, 15, 16, and 18 on the June 16th...

Evan Royster To The Hall of Fame
The Redskins' Hall of Fame year continues. First it was Russ Grimm, in August of 2010. Next, offensive lineman Will Montgomery in March of 2011. In April, Chris Samuels. Now intern Brian Tinsman writes about ANOTHER new Redskins Hall of Famer -- and it's not an offensive lineman this time.
No, the headline is not a brash prediction for the Redskins' 2011 sixth round draft pick...

About A Disappointing Draft
Let me describe a draft class: nine total picks, but only one in the first three rounds -- a first-round selection. Of those nine players, only the first-rounder finished that first season with the drafting team.
Of the other eight, three wound up on Injured Reserve. Another made the roster to start the season but was released outright in November. Four were released following...

Looking Back At A Monday Night Game To Forget
On September 16, 2002, I was at graduate school at the University of Colorado in Boulder. I didn't have NFL Sunday Ticket yet, so it still felt like a pretty big deal to have the Redskins on national TV for the Monday Night Game. It was the beginning of the Steve Spurrier era -- I'm not sure if two seasons constitutes an era, but that's what we thought at the time --...
